I started this business about being homeless and having nothing because i often hear people say, "It takes money to make money."
I disagree. To get from homeless in 2005 to rich in 2009 and then to become financially free by 2013 did not take money. I had no money when i started, and i was in debt.
It also does not take a good formal education. I have a college degree, and i can honestly say that achieving financial freedom had nothing to do with what i learned in college. I did not find much call for my years of studying calculus, spherical trigonometry, chemistry, physics, french, and english literature.
Many successful people have left school without receiving a college degree. People such as Thomas Edison, founder of General Electric; Henry Ford, founder of Ford Motor Co.; Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft; Ted Turner, founder of CNN; Michael Dell, founder of Dell Computers; Steve Jobs, founder of Apply Computer; and Ralph Lauren, founder of Polo. A professions, but not for how these people found great wealth. They developed their own successful businesses and that was what my mentor and i striving for
SO WHAT DOES IT TAKE?
I am often asked, "If it doesn't take money to make money, and schools do not teach you how to become financially free, then what does it take?
My answer: It takes a dream, a lot of determination, a willingness to learn quickly, and the ability to use your God-given assets properly and to know which sector of the CASHFLOW QUADRANT to generate your income from.
